Former Defense Secretary Robert Gates didn’t hide his contempt for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) when asked to answer Reid’s claim that he “denigrated” colleagues “to make a buck” with his new memoir, the Washington Examiner reports.
Said Gates: “It’s common practice on the Hill to vote on bills you haven’t read, and it’s perfectly clear that Sen. Reid has not read the book. He will find that I do denigrate him.”
